Asics

Asics running shoes are individually tailored to the specific needs of each segment of running population. Asics full line of performance footwear enhances the running experience for all types of runners.

Trusstic

A moulded component under the mid-foot area. Provides stability and, in combination with the contoured midsole, helps to control torsion.

Biomorphic

The Biomorphic technology is incorporated into the upper where the areas of highest deformation are found. This ensures a better fit, improved comfort.

Speva

IGS

The ASICS Impact Guidance System or I.G.S. is a technical shoe design philosophy that allows the athletes foot to perform in a more natural manner. ASICS high-tech I.G.S. shoes are constructed in a way that enhances natural "gait".

Gel

The ASICS GEL system is based on a special kind of silicone that enables optimal shock absorption. Gel units are strategically placed in the midsole and designed to enable specific functions and positions.

AHAR+

This is a thinner and lighter version of ASICS High Abrasion Resistance rubber. It is placed on heavy contact areas of the outsole to reduce excessive wear.

3M Scotchlite

A special reflective material that enhances visibility when light is poor.

Solyte

Propulsion Plate

The propulsion plate is a special hardened unit that has been placed in the forefoot for a more efficient propulsion phase.

Lace Pocket

This is a feature especially designed for Nordic Walking, which will prevent your poles from becoming caught up in the shoe-laces

Inner Lace locking

This lacing system provides trail walkers/runners with ankle support and stability. Enhanced support -and protection from movement inside the shoe- is provided by two straps. By lacing the shoe, the two straps wrap around the foot and provide a secured fit and support.

Discrete Sole Back

10mm High Heel

This 10 mm difference in height between heel and forefoot offers the best biomechanical position. This protects and enhances forward motion, and reduces load on the achilles tendons, calf muscles, ham string and back.

Discrete Sole Front

Asymmetrical Lacing System

A lacing system that follows the curve on top of the foot in a natural way, to ensure a perfect fit and less friction.

Propulsion Trusstic System

The ASICS Propulsion Trusstic System mirrors the functions of the ligaments in the foot. It helps the foot transform from a flexible structure, for shock absorption through heel strike and mid-stance, into a powerful, rigid lever needed for forward propulsion.

Wing Construction

The GEL-KINSEI 2 features a unique wing construction over the medial and lateral heel counter designed to improve side-to-side stability and maintain foot position within the shoe.
